With the development of 360° cameras and viewing devices, panoramic vision has become increasingly familiar to the general public. Services that allow users to view scenes from 360Âř perspectives, such as Google Street View, that provides 360° still images of roads system, have become popular. However, there is no service exists that allows users to post and share unique 360° videos of participatory events using an intuitive interface, which enable switching to different viewpoints. We believe that such a system would increase the enjoyment of various entertainment events. Therefore, we have designed MM360, an intuitive GPS-linked 360° video sharing system that allows users to capture and post 360° videos easily and change view positions seamlessly.
